The example is Ruby specific but I think the general thought applies to most projects and environments as well

  1. People ask LLMs to write code
  2. LLMs recommend imports that don't actually exist
  3. Attackers work out what these imports' names are, and create & upload them with malicious payloads
  4. People using LLM-written code then auto-add malware themselves

Effective software development hinges on acquiring domain knowledge, as programmers and their managers must understand the practical realities of the industry to avoid building ineffective or unusable software; without such comprehension, software may not serve its intended purpose, highlighting the non-negotiable need for domain expertise in programming.

Yeah, I'm happy to see Firefox gaining ground again. It used to be the king before Chrome. We need a little diversity in the browser space.

Me too! I used it recently to generate some fairly specific test data that would have taken me probably 30 minutes of massaging instead of the 30 seconds of creating the right prompt. So helpful!

I actually use it a lot, especially for stuff like "I need to change this code to something like this". It's usually pretty spot on and has saved me a lot of typing. Complex code not so much, at least not yet. I think it's capable of it to some degree but I've found I much prefer to offload the "mundane or tedious" stuff to it.

Can someone post an example of what this actually does? Haven't seen this before and I can't seem to easily see an example of what effect this has on your scripts. I'm guessing by reading some links that it outputs all commands that a script ran? Is that right?
